Making Progress

The spring cleaning is finished.  It’s a good thing I have a small house.  The laundry is also caught up, until next week.  I seem to go thru an awful lot of clothes for just one person. 
 
We had about 2 ½ inches of rain, so my deck hasn’t been done.  We are waiting for a couple of dry days.  All the days we had with no rain, and now that I decided to stain the deck it rains just enough every other day to keep Anthony from doing the work.
 
I found the bells for CRAP JEOPARDY.  Actually they are not bells.  I found something better.  As for the SCAVENGER HUNT, I haven’t made any progress.
 
Still feeding the birds – hungry little fellows.  I have also noticed a lot of activity at the purple martin house.  Looks like there are a few nests in there.  That’s good because we want them to eat the bugs.
 
I cut all the front grass; both mine and Kevin/Renea’s.  Renea cut all of the back grass.  Of course, now that it rained and the sun has shown for a couple of hours I can watch the grass grow.  I’m thinking that by Saturday it will be time to cut it again.
 
I have about half of the area in front completed with the rocks.  Hopefully, I will be able to finish the other half this week.  I think it’s really looking good.  I trimmed all the dead stuff off the hydrangea in the section I finished and it’s looking good also. 





The kittens are growing rapidly.  They are so cute.  Took a few pictures of them yesterday along with their mama, Cleopatra.  Renea and Stephanie are still trying to talk me into keeping one.  We’ll see.









I have ordered the business cards for BKM Wood Products LLC, and some pens to pass out.  Kevin and I have reserved a double table at the Ladonia Flea Market on Hwy 80 so we can participate in the World’s Widest Yard Sale.  This is the first year for the WWYS.  We decided to give it a try. Renea and I will be manning the booth.  Kevin is now busy making some items for us to sell.  By the way, our website is up and running.  Still needs work and tweaking.  Also, our email address links are not working.  Not sure why.  Still working on that.  Anyway, if you want to take a look at the site the address is http://bkmwoodproducts.com.  Original, right?
 

I’m not going to tell you what all I have to do yet.  Seems I made Ginger tired just reading my blog. You can rest now Ginger.  I also want to thank all of you for your comments and emails.  I do read them, and I enjoy hearing from all of you.  I’m just not too good about answering them.

Nice website. Congratulations. I think you should take the brown kitten. He/she stands out so much from the others.

Be careful with your rocks. I killed all my azaleas by putting rocks around the area. Some plants don't like them and they can also keep enough water from getting to the plants.

Uh oh! Looks like Ted and Donna think you should keep the brown kitten. I think that one's a keeper too!
Of course, I'd like to have a cat of every color...I already have a black one! ;-)
Thanks for letting "me" rest. Do you hire yourself out? We could use your help.
I also like your website. Good luck on your upcoming sale.
